So, I have been living in Broward County half of my life and there is always something going on or something different that changes. There are good and bad experiences but not all neighborhoods are perfect! We are all living in the vicinity of each other just trying to live our lives to the very best that we can. Learning to love our neighbors, our family, our homes and the community we all live in. Only thing that I do not like, (which I heard it's not just our county) is the rates increasing due to inflation. Hopefully, we can get this settled so we all do not have to struggle.
Living in Broward County has grown from a small town to a beautiful small city of diversity. Experienced going to the theatre, small cafes to delicious restaurants, beautiful beaches and intercoastal that service the nautical side of life. You can live on the water or inland of suburbs and even enough land to have horses and any other kind of animals. Broward County Public Schools is third in ranking statewide and tops in the nation! Living in Broward County is the place for those that want a nightlife next to Miami (Dade) where you are only 20-30 minutes away from the American Airlines Arena, home of the Miami Heat and the Hard Rock Stadium, home of the Miami Dolphins. There is plenty of culture to absorb! Living in Broward is the place to call, "Home"!
